The Revenue Commissioners must issue guidelines. For how long does Ms Feehily envisage a deferral will be in place? Will deferrals be provided on an annual basis or rolled over? What criteria will be used? I assume some of the elements pertaining to the administration of other taxes will be used. It is difficult to introduce any tax and taxes must be, above all, transparent and as equitable as possible. What criteria will be used and when does Ms Feehily expect the guidelines to issue?
